CNN's Rating Are Getting Hammered Harder Than Fani Willis in a Hotel 9

"That's right -- a Hotel 9. I said what I said."

CNN's ratings for January are weaker than Brian Stelter's portion control.

You may have heard Tuesday the History Channel and something called INSP, a cable network that mostly shows old western movies, beat CNN in its mid-January ratings. This is not the first time CNN plunged behind the History Channel, a network best known for John Wayne movies and "Ancient Aliens." CNN fell behind History Channel in 2018, right in the thick of former President Trump's midterms.

According to the numbers analyzed Monday by the New York Post, CNN's "Laura Coats Show" interview with Vice President Kamala Harris garnered just 72,000 viewers in the key 25-54 demographic. And personally, knowing a little bit about how this data is measured, I bet these 72,000 views just came from the TV screens anchored to the walls of every Planet Fitness and airport terminal.

It wouldn't surprise me if CNN disappears altogether in the coming year or so, depending on how this election year plays out. Without a total rebrand, no one in their right mind is going to trust anyone at CNN ever again.

Yeah I don't buy that last speculation at all -- the rule of the leftwing media is that everyone and everything fails up -- but it pleases me to read it.

CNN is reorganizing its morning lineup to try to increase ratings.

Which means they're shifting various losers around in the schedule, apparently hoping that Jim Acosta will gain the gravitas and authority at 10 am which somehow eludes him at 9pm on Saturdays.

CNN is reportedly making drastic changes as a ratings slump continues to take its toll on the network, and one morning show left over from the Chris Licht era is getting the ax.

"CNN This Morning" hosts Poppy Harlow and Phil Mattingly will reportedly take on a new role at the network, though it's unclear what that role would be. Kasie Hunt, who currently hosts the morning show beginning at 5:00 a.m., will move into hosting a shorter version of "CNN This Morning" that will run from 5:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m., according to Mediaite. Page Six is also reporting that the morning show will be sent to the chopping block.

...

Jim Acosta will be hosting "CNN Newsroom" that starts at 10:00 a.m., according to the report.

Wolf Blitzer will temporarily host the 11:00 a.m., show "The Bulletin with Pamela Brown" until Brown returns from maternity leave, Mediaite reported.

Wow. That is a powerblock of TV right there.

...

The changes, which are expected to be announced in an internal memo Monday, also mean the team that currently produces "CNN This Morning" in New York will be disbanded, Mediaite reported....

It is unclear what roles Harlow and Mattingly will play.

Code we must, "journalists."

Code we must.
